The distinction of Fellow in ASES denotes the highest grade of membership in the Society and recognition of exceptional professional achievement and service to the advancement of the ASES vision for “a world equitably and sustainably transformed to 100% renewable energy.”
ASES Fellows are nominated by their peers and entrusted to carry ASES organizational values and its proud history forward. Over the years, ASES Fellows have served as a resource for technical and outreach committees and in support of the ASES staff and board. As the solar field has broadened and become central to national and international climate solutions, the ASES Fellows welcome an increasingly diverse and exciting group of honorees to help meet the challenges of our time.
Any member of ASES who has been a member for at least ten years and has served with distinction in the advancement of solar energy utilization by way of research, education, public service, and/or service to ASES is eligible for nomination to the grade of Fellow of ASES.

ASES Fellows Criteria:
Any member of ASES who has been a member for at least ten years and has served with distinction in the advancement of solar energy utilization by way of research, education, public service, and/or ASES service, is eligible for nomination to the grade of Fellow of ASES.
An eligible member must be nominated by three members of ASES in good standing, at least one of whom is a Fellow. See the list below for current Fellows. Each of the nominators shall provide a letter of nomination containing concrete examples of the nominee’s work, activities, or accomplishments that give evidence of service with distinction.
The Fellows Screening Committee will review each nomination. The Committee reserves the right to request additional information on a nominee or to reject a nominee if the Committee members feel that the submitted documentation is inadequate. The Committee also reserves the right to reject a nomination if it arrives past the deadline.
The Committee discourages the submission of papers written by nominees, though such papers may be referenced in the support letters along with a URL and/or a description of the positive results of these works.
The Committee shall recommend potential Fellows to the Board for final approval.
For more information, please contact the ASES David Hill, Fellows Chair, at fellows@ases.org.
